Absolutely stunning!

.BMW. · 08-13-2015, 12:12 PM

Looks amazing!

matowi · 08-13-2015, 12:15 PM

Confusion... Are the rims made of carbon fibre or just covered with it for looks?

mwlmd · 08-13-2015, 12:19 PM

^^^^ I was wondering the same thing. Are these solid Carbon fiber???? And if so what is the weight?

ska///235i · 08-13-2015, 12:30 PM

CF face guys...no way wheels are made in CF

Why is that so? They are made before...

Looks great, all personal preference which is what makes our country great.

For me:
- Love the color
- Grille stripes haven't fully grown on me yet
- Car is a tad too lowered for me
- Don't care for the tinted tail lights
- Convertible looks awesome (can you really go wrong with any ///M version)

Again and just personal preference, I think this car would look awesome stock with these wheels. The ///M has a great stance to it as it is!

Still very nicely done.

dkhm3 · 08-13-2015, 12:46 PM

is the wheel entirely made of cf?

it's a "carbon fiber edition" is that just a coating?

Tisaksen · 08-13-2015, 12:47 PM

^ full carbon wheel?

If so, whats the weight on these?

Wondering the same thing!

StevenY. · 08-13-2015, 01:02 PM

I love them.

bconly · 08-13-2015, 01:03 PM

The grill stripes totally ruin the look. Extra sad because otherwise this thing is utter perfection.

No way these are full carbon. More like a CF sticker.

MSteve5036 · 08-13-2015, 01:40 PM

In for the weight specs

devondragon · 08-13-2015, 01:44 PM

If those are NOT full CF that would be sacrilegious

CF stickers have no place on this car...
If they ARE full CF then weigh specs would be awesome

BDWonder · 08-13-2015, 01:46 PM

awesome rims...great BMW tripes on the grill, love those. But the rims, they do look nice.

M3 Number 86 · 08-13-2015, 02:01 PM

Nice wheels! I read that the GT350R CF wheels are $15k a set so wow.

But I have to 100% disagree with "highly modified" that is a term just being thrown out everywhere these days. This car has some exterior bits? Not really highly modified. Unless it has 1000hp in that thing...

As if M badges on the grille, trunk, sides, everywhere on the interior, wasn't enough to scream at people to signify it's a M car

They're not 100% CF tho

BTW no one is knocking on this car...its hot, we're just trying to figure out if wheels are partial CF or full CF

I know. I didn't say this car had CF wheels, but I was just saying there are full CF wheels
